2017 has been an intense and exciting year for The Madcaps with a never-ending list of gigs up and downFrance, Italy and Spain as well as the release of their acclaimed third album "Slow Down" (Bickerton / Beast/ Howlin' Banana) in spring.But the year has not finished yet and the band from Rennes has got a new surprise. They will hit Spain againin October and they will bring a present for their Spanish fans, an exclusive 45 on Bickerton with two newbrilliant songs. "Bitter" is a raw garage-rocker with a psyche twist while "The One Day" is a 60's flavouredpop gem ala Kinks or Small Faces, a perfect combination for a winner 45.Only 200 copies, half of which will be only available at gigs.File under: garage, psyche, 60's pop

As looney and wild as the madness in their name implies, The Madcaps, hailing from Rennes, France, are a band obsessed with garage-laden surfy sounding rock that's harkening back to The Kinks, but with a modern kick of Shannon and the Clams, and a bit of Hinds. Think a grittier and more driven La Luz. Think a funkier and less grittier King Tuff.

Hailing from Rennes, the mother city of French garage rock, The Madcaps play smart Rnb and wild Rock n Roll with catchy melodies and timeless grooves. After 3 years touring around Europe with 150 shows under the belt, The Madcaps are now a stage war machine. Theyll be on tour over Europe in 2017 to promote their brand new album Slow Down. To fans of the Kinks, Beatles, Ray Charles or Daptone productions, you would be sorely wrong to abstain.
